Introducing the unit parameters of film capacitors

With the development of film capacitors, their application areas are also very broad. They can be found in many industries, including electronics, home appliances, communications, electric power, electrified railways, hybrid vehicles, wind power generation, solar power generation, and so on. In previous information sharing, the editor explained the parameters of film capacitors, such as capacitance and rated voltage. Today, we will explain the parameters of the unit. Let's take a look!

       When many people inquire about film capacitors, they first look at the capacitor's capacitance and rated voltage. Capacitance indicates the capacitor's ability to store charge and is measured in farads, or F. The subdivided units include mF, uF, nF, and pF. The conversion relationship between them is: 1F=1000mF=1000000uF, 1uF=100nF=1000000pF. Film capacitor manufacturers generally use uF and nF more often. pF is less commonly used. The rated voltage is the voltage value that indicates the long-term stable operation of the capacitor, and the unit is volt, recorded as V.
